The St. Ann Cathedral Fr. Francisco Alves Maia.
The cathedral of Santa Ana has a harmonious combination of Romanesque, Gothic and colonial styles.[4] The temple features a curvilinear frontispiece flanked by two bell towers. It has a central door. In the choir are three windows protected by iron. Its interior consists of a chancel, naves, choir and baptismal font.
By 1785 the Mother Church of Sant'Ana was built and the faithful could attend religious events. Its conclusion would take place during the administration of the parish priest Francisco de Brito Guerra (1802–1845).
